I am using Visual Sourcesafe 8.0. While working on it, accedentally the icon of the files in the project changed to a shortcut type icon. That is one with a black arrow. I couldn't find an option to restore the files to original form. That is icons without arraow.
Any one knows how to solve this?
I have got a solution for this issue from below thread:

This might seem the very definition of a 1st World Problem but it's driving me nuts!
So the right-hand icon is my opened Visual Studio project, and to its left is the icon for Visual Studio 2022. In previous versions of Windows (10) and VS (2019) there was a single Visual Studio icon, which was either plain (no open VS projects) or decorated with a mark at the bottom to show that there was an open project. I'd like to return to that happy place but I can't figure out how. There is no property that I can find on the Taskbar nor in VS itself.
For me, this seems to be a Windows 11 bug. I have the same problem for another program than VS. After unpinning the old icon and pinning the new, the problem is solved for a few days until it occures again. Hope it will be fixed soon.
The answer (so far) seems to be, as #phuzi said, to unpin VS2022. I then closed the project and repinned VS 2022. There is now only one icon - result.
Does anyone else have this issue? There does not seem to be a way to edit the Solution Explorer toolbar. One of the icons for Solution Explorer is missing in my C# projects.
I am using Version 16.10.3.
I managed to add this icon to the wrong place, but maybe you can find the right place and update this answer.
I did this by customizing menus:
Clicking Tools | Customize...
Selecting Commands tab
Clicking Add Command...
Selecting View
Selecting View Code, and then OK
It looks like what you have to do is find the right place to add it in the first place.
The options under Commands are Menu bar, Toolbar, and Context menu, none of which seems to fit. I looked around briefly; maybe you can do a more in depth search to find the right spot.
I have several extensions installed. One of these modifies the Solution Explorer behavior for dynamic nodes. It's possible that extension or another is interfering with this icon. Try also disabling your extensions and see if that has an effect.
Folks, I figured out the issue. When you create a .NET Core 5.0 project the VS environment is setup different. I deleted the .NET 5.0 project and recreated as a .NET Standard one with the same name and the icon showed up again.
In fact, the Studio 'solution' version is different although your using the exact same VS application. Problem solved for now.
I reecently updated my Unity editor from 5.1 to 5.4.f2f, and my IDEs started misbehaving. I use Visual Studio 2015 Community, and when I updated its Intellisense stopped recognizing all Unity terms. When I open scripts from the Inspector, VS opens nothing first, and open the script with broken Intellisense if I try and open it a second time. Monodevelop also cannot recognize any Unity terms. When I try and "Open C# Project," Visual Studio opens nothing.
The Unity editor also keeps on mentioning in the Inspector that GameObject scripts are missing too.
I'd really appreciate some help here guys. Keep in mind that I've also accidentally pressed the "Publish" button at the bottom of the VS window, but It was after the issue surfaced, so I'm not sure if it has any ties to this.
I think I solved the Problem.
It involved manually opening the Unity project in Explorer and opening the projects .sln file.
Apparently, this is a Windows OS flaw.
I got this answer from This link
At work we have just upgraded from VS2008 to VS2010 (keeping up with the times, I know). In VS2008 I used to navigate to various project folders in Source Control Explorer and double click the vbproj file and it would add it to my current Solution (or create a new solution if there wasn't one). The functionality in VS2010 seems to be that when I do this it closes my current Solution and opens the new project on its own.
Is there any way to get the VS2008 functionality back? I know I can right click on my Solution and Add->Existing Project..., but that takes a lot longer. I've tried Googling this but have come up blank.
Thanks in advance.
No, this beaviour was taken out from VS between 2008 and 2010. In 2010 when you double-click a *.csproj or *.vbproj file it will always open it up in a "temporary solution".
This gets annoying when comparing diffs between local changes to your project file... in my view VS should open it in the editor if anything. /rant
My toolbox is empty.
Obviously, I'm not the first. I read this question and this other question, but that didn't help.
I click here...
I get this window...
With instructions that say: "...Drag an item onto this text, to add it to the toolbox..."
Sounds good; from where do I get such items to drag?
The toolbox is empty because there is no project loaded.
The toolbox is populated with tools/controls according to the type of the current project. The controls are different for MFC than they are for ASP.NET, for example. If you haven't loaded any project, Visual Studio can't populate the toolbox.
Either open an existing project, or go to File -> New Project to create a new one.
Have you tried right-clicking on it and selecting the "Reset Toolbox" option? You can also try to manually add specific tools to it by using the "Choose Items..." option.
A common suggest is also to go into the Visual Studio 2010 Directory and delete all of the .tbd files within the following directory (Related) :
C:\Documents and Settings\Local Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\VisualStudio\10.0"
Although if neither of these options work, you will really want to consider possibly reinstalling / repairing Visual Studio.
Is your project running? I noticed that my toolbox is empty when I am debugging the project. Try stopping debugging.
